Should I get a DEVICE for my mobile hotspot?

We just added Unlimited Premium w-50GB mobile hotspot on ONE line because we’re in a rural area deemed “unserviceable” for home Internet. Want to use this new mobile hotspot to power an iPad and doorcam. But I guess it’s not usable for the whole family unless my phone is in the vicinity? And mobile hotspot drains my battery. Can I add a device of some sort (mobile router???) to serve as “WiFi” (or would it be Bluetooth?) for my family’s iPads, the doorcam, and for the other non-UP phone lines to use as Internet (data search, streaming, etc)? I think I still need to be in their vicinity, but at least I could share my 50GB mobile data with everyone. If a device would help, what would that be?
